When I log on, I keep getting the message to introduce myself so here goes.

I've been climbing since 1979. Okay a long time... I no longer have an obsessive urge to onsight 5.10 (and no I still can't do it except on my best days). I've mellowed (it must come with age) so my idea of a perfect day is few thousand feet of climbing on a high alpine ridge. Think the Upper Exum on the Grand. I try to climb at Red Rocks Canyon Open Space, Eleven Mile Canyon or in the gym at least once or twice a week. I'm hoping to find some more climbing partners from the the CS RockRatz.

I did manage a trip to Chamonix last summer. It's climbing nirvana! I'll post of few of the pictures.

Cheers,

Welcome! I started climbing around the same time, and wish I could say I still climb as much as you do. But I did get a new harness...
